JANUARY 14-31
Miss Cleveland Gives
Up Campus Position
Miss Ruth Cleveland, supervisor
in the elementary grades of Campus School, has resigned her position to accept one in Cambridge,
Nebraska, where she will teach
social science in the junior high
school.
Miss Cleveland has held her position in Campus School for about
ten years. She expected to leave
Madison today to take her new
job, but her plans were upset by
an attack of influenza on Sunday night, and she was obliged
to enter Madison Community Hospital Monday for treatment. Her
departure will therefore be delayed
until she is able to drive her car
to Nebraska.
W.A.A. Holds a Party
in Gym on January 18
The W.A.A. members held a
stunt party in the gymnasium
from 7 to 9:30 o'clock last Thursday evening.
The evening's entertainment consisted of a stunt by each member.
Those who gave a stunt that was
not sufficiently humorous or did
not evoke the amount of laughter
it should have, were forced to pay
a forfeit. To climax the party,
apple pie a-la-mode was served.
Assemblies Interest
Students and Faculty
"Combat America," a moving
picture starring Clark Gable, was
shown at assembly on January 16.
The picture answered the question
of how the American Army Air
Force carries on in other countries.
Miss Eleanor Thomas, a representative of the Girl Scouts, gave
an interesting talk on her work
at an assembly held on January
7. She explained the importance
of the organization's activities and
the types of positions which must
be filled if the organization is
to carry on its work successfully.
14 Students Enrolled
For Practice Teaching
Fourteen girls are doing practice teaching this quarter. Doris
Greene, Roberta Lange, and Catherine Noordsy, are teaching in the
seventh and eighth grades. Marian Huber, Betty Roling, Evelyn
Webber, and Geraldine Mead are
teaching in the fifth and sixth
grades. Petrine Hauge, Lois
Schlender, and Marilyn Engel are
working in the third and fourth
grades. Bernice Anderson, Mary
Stafford, Phyllis Hills, and Dorothy Brands are teaching in the
first and second grades.
Dr. Headley Returns
to Eastern From Navy
Dr. John W. Headley has returned to Eastern and resumed
his duties as Director of Extension.
Upon being granted a leave of
absence, Dr. Headley left Madison
on October 8, 1942, to serve in the
United States Navy. During the
time he was in service he had
training at Great Lakes and later
was stationed at Sioux Falls as
a Recruiting Specialist 1/c and at
Hastings, Nebraska. The latter
place is the headquarters for recruiting in a territory composed
of twenty-one counties.
On December 18, 1944, Dr. Headley received an honorable discharge from service and returned
to Madison. He feels he can do
much in the educational field in
his work here and says he is glad
to be back.
L.S.A. Members Plan to
Meet at Augustana
Two coming events of interest
to the local L.S.A. are regional
meetings to be held in Brookings
on February 3 and in Sioux Falls
on February 4.
On February 3, there is to be
a regional worker's conference at
Brookings and representatives
from both North and South Dakota and Minnesota are expected.
Rev. Schiotz is to be the main
speaker and plans for the year
will be taken up. Discussion on
the possibility of having a college
L.S.A. Bible Camp next summer
is also planned.
The following day, February 4,
a joint L.S.A. fellowship for Vermillion, Madison, Brookings, and
Augustana at Augustana College
is planned. Rev. Schiotz will also
be present for this meeting. Several of the girls at Eastern are
planning to attend the meeting
at Augustana.
Commercial Students

Last fall a Student Commercial
Club was organized by Miss Bernice Nelson for the purpose of
broadening the students' outside
interests by giving them a better
understanding of poetry, drama,
and music. At each meeting a
committee is appointed to give a

these subjects.
In order to join this organization a student must be taking two
